The scope includes providing new feeders from the powerhouse to the navigation lock; replacing the 480-volt power distribution equipment; installing cameras; repairing certain grounding details; and replacing the control systems for the downstream gate, upstream gate, drain valves, fill valves, and bascule bridge. It also includes replacing the upstream and downstream control stands for the navigation lock. The new oil-filled pad-mounted substation transformers will be located away from the river and will include spill containment systems.�The following is a summary of the project scope from the Design Documentation Report.� Power For the power distribution system, the scope includes replacement of the feeders from Station Service to the navigation lock; the step-down transformers; the navigation lock switchgear; the navigation lock motor control centers; the bascule bridge motor control centers; branch circuits; and branch circuit loads and panelboards that were or will be in the switchgear and motor control centers. The scope also includes replacement of corroded grounding electrode conductor connections within the navigation lock and the addition of ground busses to existing panelboards fed by the new equipment.� Feed power from Station Service to navigation lock at 13800V� Transform voltage down to 480V� Switch and protect power for MCCs� Feed power to motor control centers� Convert from ungrounded to high-resistance grounded 480V distribution� Switch and protect power for branch loads� Provide power to derrick crane� Provide power to existing motor loads� Provide power to existing non-motor loads, but not replacing lighting or lighting panelboards� Provide bridge motors and brakes� Provide VFD and FVR starter for downstream gate� Provide space for future VFD for upstream gate� Feed power to lock stand panelboards� Raceways and cable tray for wire and cable� Repair grounding electrode connections� Add ground busses to existing panelboards fed by new equipment� Demolish 2600-ft. of asbestos-cement cable trays� Demolish power center (with transformer) in Control Building� Demolish feeders from dam to power center� Demolish bridge motors and brakes� Demolish starters for downstream gate� Arc flash risk reduction with zone-selective interlocking� Controls� The scope includes replacement of relay-based control systems with PLC based control systems for the navigation lock miter gates; the bascule bridge; the drain and fill valves and a monitoring screen in the powerhouse control room; The scope also includes the operator interfaces; small craft stations; operator control consoles; and related field instrumentation. The scope also includes a new CCTV system for the navigation lock; marine radio in the lock stands; and network connections in the lock stands for VoIP and CorpsNet.� Bascule bridge control system. (HMI interface to be used as primary remote/local controller; lever handle, push buttons to be used as local emergency backup controller)� Upstream gate control system (HMI interface to be used as primary remote/local controller, lever handle, push buttons to be used as local emergency backup controller)� Downstream gate control system (HMI interface to be used as primary remote/local controller; lever handle, push buttons to be used as local emergency backup controller)� Drain and fill valve control system (HMI interface to be used as primary remote/local controller; lever handle, push buttons to be used as local emergency backup controller)� Control Room monitoring system� Fiber optic circuits for connection to VoIP telephone system in lock stands� Fiber optic circuits for connection to CorpsNet in lock stands� Marine radio system for lock stands� CCTV system for navigation lock and bascule bridge� Shock risk reduction by reducing the voltage of control circuits� Bascule bridge limit switches and position instruments� Access control for control stands� Miter gate position sensors� Water level sensors� Mechanical� Bascule bridge motors, brakes, and mounting of limit switches and sensors� Miter gate position sensor details� Stilling well and lock chamber level sensor details� Structural� Pad-mounted transformer oil containment in the parking lot� Seismic protection of electrical equipment� Water protection for enclosures (pads)� Lock stand loads (IBC)� Architectural Prefabricated two-story shelter for upstream controls� Prefabricated shelter for downstream controls� Historic preservation of bascule bridge control console� Tile in Control House� Demolish upstream lock stand� Demolish downstream lock stand� All on-site work shall be performed in accordance with the Corps of Engineers Safety and Health Requirements Manual (EM 385-1-1).
